Curatorial Ethos
The gallery serves as a hub integrating contemporary art and culture, acting as a bridge for Korean artists to enter the international market while introducing significant overseas artists to domestic audiences. Its programme places particular emphasis on Dansaekhwa (monochrome painting) and Korean modernism, having organized landmark exhibitions that have shaped global discourse on these movements.
Kukje Gallery is a prominent commercial gallery established in Seoul in 1982 by Hyeon-sook Lee, with its main location situated at 54 Samcheong-ro, Jongno-gu.
